I understand about well-being a focus in schools and especially with the new curriculum. Alot of schools are focusing on this as it have become a major issue in our society. Any tool that takes away work overload and allow teachers to focus on the explicit teaching really helps.
Digital technology can help with many of the learning processes by increasing access, interaction from students, interesting and stimulating lessons, relevance to the current society and culture we live in and it teaches children a new skill in ICT at the same time.
In my classroom I intend to use all the tools spoken about in the videos and slides and have been practicing in my google classroom account using the AI tool gemini, google slides, lesson plan ideas, resources needed, google docs and the great idea generation for links to online learning tools and resources.
I like the ease of differentiation with digital technology and how it saves on time and planning so that you are ahead and can see potential pitfalls before you even teach the lessons. This means that every lesson has the potential to keep to a very high standard.
I really like the autonomy that digital technology brings. I can see the students’ interaction, completed work and learning targets achievement in real time. No more excuses about leaving work at home or oral and auditory work being completed when it wasn’t.
Another point is that it helps with a running record of assessment both formal and informal through engagement.
Another point is the guidelines for reflecting. It can help involve the pupil voice in real time.This makes lessons more interesting and relevant to the students being taught. One interesting tool is how to create assignments with google forms. I think I will need to play with the tools for a while to really see the real life application and make sure that I can apply these tools on a daily basis.
